ESPN NBA Analyst Jeff Van Gundy tells Rich why the Golden State Warriors have proved him wrong on his original stance that the Boston Celtics were the better team at the start of the NBA Finals, why the Celtics’ constant chirping at the refs is not helping their cause, why flopping is still an issue in the NBA despite recent efforts to crack down on the practice, and says how his Knicks and Rockets teams he coached in the 90’s and early 2000’s would fare in today’s NBA.

Rich reacts to Deshaun Watson’s first public comments since his Browns introductory press conference in March.

Rich weighs in on 2-time US Open champion Brooks Koepka’s prickly response to questions about the LIV Golf Tour and wonder if fellow major winner John Rahm is correct in stating that the upstart league is not real golf.

DeShawn Watson spoke today we have the soundbites that are common. Same with Brooks kept talking about why he's not joining the live tour and won't John Romm had some interesting comments about all that is US open has gotten underway to release the week as the U.S. Open begins on Thursday in Boston, Massachusetts went up interesting as a first round of the U.S. Open goes down on the same day as game six in Boston, Massachusetts.

Lots going on in joining us to kick off our number three on the Mercedes-Benz vans from a man I love listening to Breen and Mark Jackson in this guy. It is just a great listen.

It's a lot of fun. I become smarter and boy do I love it when he just absolutely leads into floppers because that is the way I feel as well on the Mercedes-Benz vans found on the great Jeff VanGundy of the worldwide leader in sports joining us now from the East Coast are you doing Jeff everything better for talking to you.

Thank you so much for joining on on a busy day and obviously busy travel schedule. What you think of game five. What your impressions now that were few hours. Remove from Jeff. Well I think for the warriors to win a game where Curry shot the ball so poorly and to win and win easily down the stretch is remarkable. I think the last two wins by the warriors have been with their roster composition as remarkable as I remember. I just so impressed with how they played and how they figured out ways to win. You know, really hard-fought games and I thought Boston was the better, more talented team from the start. And right now I look very wrong. You can still be. It just seems that there's too many turnovers again and we saw that again last night from Boston. How does one fix that obviously coach, you don't knows what's up and and has been very straightforward with his team. But how does one fix such an issue. Well, you want low turnover games you're going to have to be intelligent in the way you attacked the defense and you're going to have to make sure that you're not. You're eliminating the homerun place and the lack of fundamental place because there's going to be mistaken again and you're gonna have some turnovers, but don't try to eliminate the fundamental one playing in a crowd and then know the homerun passing plays are really problematic as a way to steal them in open court situations and to me that's where you know Boston has a lot of answers for the warriors in the half-court but in the full-court in the open court does have such good shooting and skill can be hard for them to get those type. So right now for for Boston. You know their best defense is a really sound offense and they just haven't been able to limit their turnovers enough to keep themselves to win these last two and the two games in one of the series that had to 12 turnovers in the other three. Dave had high high turnovers joining us your postgame thoughts on the Rich Eisen show and Wiggins is becoming a revelation, mean, and in the fact that he is presence there. Interestingly enough, it can be traced back to the sign and trade away of the rent and now he's providing that fourth wheel. Obviously, nobody's to rent. He's a unicorn and is in itself, but with Kari and Clay now back in the mix in Fremont.

Wiggins is providing that crucial fourth wheel for this team.

Certainly, over the last two games. I'm wondering what you seen from your mercy, Jeff and there best winged offender and he didn't make jumpshot I missed all six reasonably but he is attacking the basket and being opportunistic authentically playing off the skill level of the other players and defensively he really done a fantastic job in the hardest part for players like Wiggin, is to find a level of consistency that you can do this. Night after night so I felt like after Wiggins played a terrific game for he may be in for a lesser performance in game five. But he entered the Bellamy plate and are you the best warrior on the floor. It was even quoted in this series is been the second best warrior player and that hasn't been close so it looks like a terrific trade and because of Wiggins and Curry there primed to be in position to win a championship. So you proceed to what appears to be its intense at all in the finals are this just in, but it seems to be a lot of chirping towards the officiating and you've got a front row seat and the Celtics last night seem to lose their focus is no question about it in the fourth quarter, MI picking up something from sitting on the couch that doesn't exist but what what can you tell me Jeff, I would think. I really do think that initiating I have no problem with people scrutinizing officiating throughout their just like the teams.

They have a huge impact on who wins and who loses all highly compensated there.

The tops in their profession. So I think it's fair game to scrutinize them, but I do believe that teams and our league as a whole have allowed far too much confrontational and aggressive conversation. I do not remember like walking onto the court and holding a conference at midcourt. Time after time, like it's happening almost every timeout and I think for the Celtics last night. I think what they have to do is really ask themselves those are constant complaining discussion however you want to term it doesn't give art ourselves, our best chance to play our best game and some guys can play very well run in their mouth to the official. Other guys can be distracted very easily and so I think it's a incumbent on the Celtics to really look at how their their behavior is impacting their performance in their eyes. Maybe it isn't at all, or maybe in as they study it. It had a an unnecessary negative impact on how they played, but there is no doubt that your picking up on something that almost impossible to avoid the every plate complaints the histrionics of throwing your arms up on every noncall and it I think it's a bad look for the NBA as a whole and then sometimes when you do it all the time it takes away from the moments where you're actually right and well I Rich I agree with that and if the same thing and I met you mentioned flopping it why I have no sympathy when floppers actually don't whop and don't get the benefit of the doubt, because Obama referee and you're trying to trick me instead of playing the game I am going to be very leery of any contact because I know your unknown exaggerator and Juergen Juergen.

I'm not get some calls that maybe you should've gotten just because you tried this preparation on nearly every play basis so I have no sympathy.

I have no sympathy for the chronic complainers nor the chronic floppers who don't even get the calls that maybe they should gets talking about the defensive player of the year here though but you think that's what happened last night when Clay had that wide open. Three.

It sure look like he extended to shove, Marcus Markey goes down to the floor slides damn near the paint from three-point circle and there's no calling clay jars and open shop that happened last night. You think I did not reply on that. Okay so I didn't have a right in front of a block the view of the extension but I bet a lot of people like yourself say it was clearly the extension of the arm and that I was privy to the timeout. Marcus Mark very respectfully and politely at the official you know about the play and he said you plopped and again because I Marcus Mark if you get the NBA issue like that for a while. The NBA had done a good job cleaning up the flopping they they started the fine. I haven't seen a fine of up whop in ages. And I think flopping again is can is making a huge comeback into the league and I think our players are very intelligent. If it's not rewarded and punished. It will be eliminated, but if they get if they can soccer officials into calls they're going to do it. So I think it's really important that the MBA particulates of high level of basketball you you you play basketball you don't try to trick the official you can play Marcus Morrissey did ask that of the officials there like you slopped and then he gets called for an offense of sound moments later when Jordan Poole was even touched.

I wouldn't blame him for losing his cool something like that in that situation and then you know sometimes I'm just wondering when one out when coaches use their challenges. Sometimes this challenge will moments in the second and third quarter and they hold it in their back pocket right on wondering what your two cents are on something like that. Jeff I never coached in the challenge era right but I think from what I've seen in talk to coaches about their going to use it on point score that they can either get a pocket, particularly maybe a three point no play or they can take you no points off, but I think a lot of guys like to try to hold it in case a star player later in the game gets a bad call, just like what Steve tried her tried to do with agreed price, preventing him from getting a sick. I think they try to hold onto that and I think again. I think everybody would agree to file call that don't lead the points should be reserved for the stars for high leverage situations, but I think most would agree if it involved points. Even early in the game, you take it because you don't know if you're ever going to get to in oblate use of the challenge.

You may not use it. I don't think any email used is challenge last night so there varying thoughts but I think it always involves stars and point here in the rich. I was in trouble, so I let you go just made a mental note saying I got asked Jeff about this when I have them on tomorrow watch the end of the game you just mentioned, dream on green stalling out in the graphic comes across the screen. The dream on green stalling on three or five final games last clear to have such a thing happen during the MB Farms. It was Dale Davis of the 2000 Indian Indiana Pacers.

You mentioned that staff turning Mark Jackson on if you did or not, but Mark had a big problem with it you call those pacers a dirty team and what would your coaching a team of choirboys like we were when big bad boys of the block Indiana Pacers's are always pushing, shoving, grabbing hold these and you know like we follow rules and we follow the spirit of the rules, SR, Jackson, page 13, you know they were nasty and you know we tried to be above that, but sometimes we couldn't hold our tempers. So you just as a friend. Remembering those times I was applauding for my front row seat last night you said that brothers overly goal picking on Charles Oakley. I didn't appreciate it when you said and Mark Jackson had a problem with it and then the fact that you double down by throwing Antonio Davis onto the table in the mix as well. At the same time, I was just I was laughing my ass off. That was great. Just great. I'm glad I gave you a moment of levity, which I do remember those days working so fondly, seriously, like the Davis and Reggie and McKee.

They competed so hard and were coded brilliantly by Larry Brown and so yeah was the good times absolutely and that you as it does kind of dovetail into the conversation you here certainly on the family of networks that the worldwide leader about different errors, and whether the current era would get you know there asses handed to them by the lightbox pacers and I'm wondering what what you think of that conversation Jeff as to whether the players today are. It's a softer league and away in the NBA right now.

Okay Larry Brown that was in the 94th Larry Bird. I just correct this are elected but I think that I'm looking out TNT's doing up a pregame show from right in front of what we broadcast before we go on the Isaiah Thomas Wright and I said, was like my first year in the MBA and I think it was 89, 90.

We played the next stooge I can play them in the second round of the playoffs after beating the Boston Celtics and again five deciding game at Boston Garden and was absolutely murder.

He was so good but the game is so physical and number they had Dennis Rodman is restarting. Three. I believe at that time and no shooting on the planet. I still like that wherever he wanted. So you could good guy like Isaiah Thomas and you put them into the non-hand check era in the five out era and amazing skill that our players have now and you put shooting around him.

I guarantee you he be at his prime top five player now right so players like Thomas who are these great competitors they could play any time, but I really don't have a lot of I don't know an appetite for comparing and contrasting errors. I even to me. Comparison is the thief of joy because whatever you say someone is going to feel diminished and I really I don't have like that you know necessity, but I know this. The best teams I ever coached Tori over was an assistant coach of I believe could play in any year because they had versatility they could score they can guard and they can adapt if you can adapt to different rules of different errors like Patrick Ewing, he was dominant then be dominant now you say how we going to guard the pick and roll.

I say you didn't watch him in his prime because he can guard it could be.

Could be could contain Stockton he could contain Isaiah to the extent that anybody could know some of the greatest point guards ever place out. I just really I think greatness can transcend errors but I just don't have you know it in me to like try to diminish some era to prop up another just I always appreciate the time and love to have you back on one time weather out here not just on the phone just going down memory lane just picking your brain on Riley Pat and and the rest of the those next years in Europe used in years and just the league in general and I love listening to your brother, to monitor how the hell anybody ever got a word in edge wise around the dinner table, growing up, but I just really enjoy all of the family. How that happened.

Reggie has been to raise her hand and asked permission different era be seen but not heard era that was a great summer game six and truly love to have you back on now.

Maybe when when things aren't so busy. Thanks for the call. Thank you.

That's just thing on the right here, he's call these games on ABC's brother is now part of the top crew right it's it's him. Harling and and Reggie Miller write Martha for the three of them called the Western Conference Fontana stands on the test integrate to. He's great, should be like a crossover broadcast with the VanGundy's together and see what they do together.

I was watching VanGundy cast VanGundy cast would be phenomenal. Like anything like on Food Channel any any just the right is a VanGundy cast HotBot, the VanGundy cast of like a bachelor finale. Having these guys break down some pop-culture thing that there just surf right into all of it. Then I'm telling you it made me laugh out loud as you see that start at the bottom of the screen, Dale Davis, and also because dirty team objects marks like what you talking about those other gifts. Also, Antonio Davis and their 2/7 mix they were playing their plan by the rules with the Panhandle people, but is also reliable.

VanGundy said anyone on this planet picked on Charles Oakley that was alert right so lots of soundbites to play for you folks over the last 39 minutes of this program will become back to Sean Watson's press conference.

I've not heard any of the soundbites.

I will react to them.

Having watched them and heard them for the first time, like perhaps you will that's next and then Brooks John ROM on the Lipitor from the US open.

His introductory press conference in Cleveland where he was bestowed the best contract in the history of the NFL most player friendly contract in the history of the NFL. All of his money guaranteed and also the first year of his contract is designed in such a way that if he is suspended. The amount of money that would be suspendable is minimal. Just 1 million of the 45 others is 1 million of the 46 total is is in a certain manner in his contract that would leave it open to being garnished.

The rest of it.

We can't touch you get.

So it could be more friendly and that's that would normally make a guy being from ear to ear, but because of what's going on in his personal life. The introductory press conference of the Sean Watson look like a funeral. I think that was my comment. When women were on the air live in the crazy hell going on month of March hasn't spoken since then.

Since then, no details of his depositions in the civil suits that have been filed against them of come out. There is a New York Times story that came out as well. Last week two more accusers are coming. There was an HBO piece on real sports on all of this that happened on the night of the Emmy awards and we read about it that night and heard about it that night. Apparently other women were at home watching it and 1/24 civil suit came out civil suit came out based on.

I guess somebody who not even his own attorneys knew about that was their reaction to her civil suit. The details in her civil suit, the 24th that came, it was thought, apparently because the woman and watched real sports and said I gotta speak out now in the details in that suit.

I called Violet because they are true. File so now comes a guy stepping to the podium today made available by the Browns and I appreciate him answering the questions or at least facing questions and many of the answers. From what I read again. I didn't see the entire press conference he can't talk about things because there's a process going on. However part of that process is answering questions when you are the quarterback of a major NFL team running NFL team and the first question that I find interesting and I'm eager to hear the answer. The New York Times story written by Jenny prentice based on all of their reporting in the Houston area and also in other spots that the Sean frequented 66 masseuses 66 different masseuses contacted by the Sean Watson over 17 months when he was asked today if he thinks that numbers accurate American as I don't think so. What memo attorneys went through, but at the same time, you know, this is more of a legal question that I can't really get into details about so your product as my attorneys and things like that to confirm cake heading that off to his attorneys, let's move onto the next one will take them all as a whole and I've not heard these are move from hearing these for the first time with you. He was asked why should he be believed over his accusers understand the question and identify respected but for like this environment, the football field is hard to answer that question without special without talking to anybody in my liberty but at the same time not been honest and I've been truthful about my stance and that's it. And I never force anyone on the thought so that's what you know. Then send it from the beginning, and I'm going to continue to do that until all the facts come out on the legal side at the continue to just know over the process. My legal team and the Cordova heart third soundbite here I am being told by our crack staff that this is all indicative. The general tenor of the conversations. These are cherry picked. This is just the best indication as to what was asked of him and his answers. The third one was out did you regret anything that he said it is an initial press conference which he kind of just repeated right there that he never assaulted anyone ever forced anybody to do anything and some of his accusers of absolutely refuted that that they felt violated and he was asked if he regretted any of those statements thing. Yeah, I think that question, have matured a lot of people not just women in general. But a lot of people from this knowing that leave from women to males and things like that and what I was, and is yes.

I never assaulted this respected art harass anyone, but at the same time I do understand that I do have aggressive as far as the impact that is half on the community and people outside of just myself no and that includes my family that includes this organization that includes my teammates in the locker room to have to these questions then close.

Here, the fan base of the Cleveland Brown that includes males, females everyone across the world. You know so that's one thing I do regret is the impact that is have triggered so many people and days is tough to do it. That's a lot of words I don't know if he can truly answer these questions handle and keep the word salad out of his diet. There while these cases are still pending and he regrets triggering people by saying he didn't disrespect anybody there is no question he he he left women feeling disrespected and again reading some of these documents and you tell me if this behavior is any way shape or form. Normal and this behavior is any way shape or form could be viewed as respect. It's just so tough to believe and I get I say this fully knowing the guy who came to Clemson that I thought I knew, or hopefully for him. I still do know that this does. I can't believe we're hearing that she's not equipped to answer these questions could 66 masseuses that is an absurd number that should be his answer absurd. That's absurd. Absurd.

66 masseuses over 17 months why what I see 66 masseuses over 17 months. Why would I contact 1666 masseuses over 17 months on the Sean Watson I'm the star quarterback of the Houston Texans on a list delete athlete on planet Earth. Why what I need to see 66 different people to work on my body.

My body is a temple I should only have a couple of people 66 and absurd number. I'll even need to contact my lawyers that's not true. That sounds like an answer why should I be bold believed over my accusers.

That's an easy question answer what it wanted that mean I'm coming off of a football field right now. It's tough to answer the football environment. The answer is I'm to be believed, because what I'm saying is true. What I'm saying is true, ask anybody in the Houston community. Go ahead and ask anybody what I what I meant to that community gladness everybody what I what I was about in the community. Problem is, if you ask certain people.

These are these are answers to those questions that you would think are coming in and in the eye again. I haven't seen the full thing so I apologize, which apparently I did.

I hear those words, apologize. I apologize if I'm incorrect, but he said he regretted the way that his comments about saying that women were not disrespected by amp and how that that that gets men and women males with women all over the world upset's again that the numbers mount up and makes it very difficult to comprehend and believe it just makes it just it's very tough and I want to believe it cannot do. I want to believe the sky want to believe them. On behalf of all my diehard browns fans who can't believe that there in the situation I want. I want to say that on behalf of the league that I've been working for for 20 years. I want to say that on behalf of the Sean Watson and his family, and I certainly want to say on behalf of all the women that goes without saying, but of course and I want to say it but man it's just so many for us to have to sit here and believe in him saying I've been honest all along.

It didn't sound like he could be straight up on some of these responses today and he has to talk because he's not suspending he's not on the exempt list.

He is a star quarterback for top-notch team in this league that can win it all this year, things break right with the fan base. That's one of the best in sports that dog pound everybody I've known from back in the day from all those people I met in that school up north as they refer to down and that football 11 state of Ohio. I honestly don't know what to make of all this, except I need more money more information and while all these lawsuits are sitting out there now 25 and 26, at least he got out there and spoke but IIII wanted a mom left want and what can he say when his when his decency hasn't settled them. He hasn't address them. If he says he sorry which he has to he has to at least address that he had problems in Houston and problems with his the way he conducted himself semi-checksum is clearly something was clearly there question is, what's the guy I can't shoot you straight enough.

I just want to give him credit for standing there saying a bunch of words when you now that I'm on. Tough. Let's take a break here on the rich eyes and show 844204 Rich number.what we come back more more I mean that the drama in the world of golf right now. I mean their sides are being taken. Battle lines are being drawn to say the least, Brooks Capa and John ROM on why they're knocking to join the live tour. Although Pat Perez that he would never do it now is now is waving the flag big time that's coming out next year on this Tuesday edition of the rich eyes and show back here in the rich eyes and show 844204 Rich number to dial here on the program Callaway rogue ST driver baby every golf equipment company purchasing for the longest off-duty but this one is the one built to completely bomb it for real. I use the sticks and they are incredible. The rogue ST drivers have been speed tonight. CSC ST to be Callaway's fastest, most stable driver ever. There's a new tungsten speed cartridge engineered with and it gives you more speed on off-center hits provides more forgiveness thanks to hi Emma why there's a rogue ST engineered for every player because that's what Callaway is all about conferencing and fitted to the max. That's an incredible combination of distance and forgiveness.

There is the max D if you want to dedicate a draw model to help you shape your shot if you want something more lowest spin. The max LS gives you a stronger trajectory, more neutral, ball flight the players out there.

The rogue ST triple diamond LS that's the one for you the Compaq) had the tour players log countless thought to every aspect of speech. All you gotta do is go rogue dodger rogue ST driver Callaway golf.com/go rogue and by the way on NBC Sports and NBC on Peacock and Peacock were to be all over the United States open. That's does in fact tee off start on Thursday from Boston, while Brookline, Massachusetts to be exact GPS at the 122nd United States open from the country club in Brookline mass Thursday to Eastern on NBC and Peacock so let's get into it here, you got yourself Brooks Capa and his biceps and is and is and is and is is beginning just got married a great site and play over the last I think this always wanted to get some of the registry took his brother got so Brooks Capa asked about the live tour today and here was his and Fuego to use our phrases on NBC Sports on Peacock response air America U.S. Open right-of-way U.S. Open so I think you can assess the autonomous black cloud over the US opening is one of my favorite events, no, like to give more weight to talk about. I don't say I'm trying to focus on U.S. Open religion.

We don't get tired of the conversations and start all this, the delegates that you black out U.S. Open. I think that sucks I should be filled out as situation where to play and talk about some event that happened last week Vince will be going there for the next 10,000. These easiest. He says he feels bad for the USGA for once, I guess. And then when he steps out there and he can't see his shoes standing in the rough and will feel differently about the USGA. Probably the person went out when he turned his ankle stepping on the golf ball. He's looking for, but His brother does play on the left or he has joined in as Brooks pointed out is a two-time where this event. But he also hasn't said that he won't be joining in the future. So I kind of understand him getting some questions about a man they're all going to get there all going at it and he just didn't want to talk about it.

He wants to talk about the U.S. Open in the event stuff like that which is not is not real. Can you drive the car looking in the rearview mirror. Sometimes right. Some cars now have like instead of the mirror. It's it's not a camera can affect so maybe you can Darlene now are parsing. If that's the well that might be in the ostrich way of looking at it right bury her head in the sand will talk about a nice black cloud just by asking these guys question yes because the tour it it is the crossroads for this tour. It is coming down the pike. It is a Rogers Allen chipmunk said in our number one is here to stay. It is totally going to change golf. The PGAs probably are trying to wait this thing out just to see it flameout that there's only a means it's not coming every week and last week what Phil shot 10 over for his $200 million golf isn't that great. The graphics look weird. We have no idea about the team concept Greg Norman is a total a hole staring at Allen ship knock and he's {font of this god of this whole thing and and and and battle lines are drawn, so yeah, he doesn't want it like he just wants to talk about the U.S. Open but golf is changing. It is here it is arrived at.

These reporters are just doing their jobs.

As Allen pointed out right and and and his way of he just wants to avoid. Maybe some of the questions and just like on your play golf on the two time winner. This event, let's talk. John ROM let's talk.

Let's hear what he has to say. The Spaniard I do see the appeal that other people seem to live golf.

I do see some of their delicately points or arguments I can make towards why they prepared to be honest, part of the format is not really appealing to me, shot him three days to me is not a golf tournament will cut that simple.

Our plague is the best in the world in a format that's been going on for hundreds of years right so that's what I want to see and yeah money is great but Kelly and I missed this first thing happened to me was started talking about like what I lifestyle change if I got 400 million not changed one bit. Truth be told I could retire right now with what I've made another live very happy play golf again so never really play the game of golf for reasons like the game is the best I've always been interested in history and legacy and right now the PG. This is the meaning when you win the memorial meaning when you win on a promise of innovation on the same meaning when LA quarried some of this story. Venues and that to me matters. I have enough to this winning this dispatch U.S. Open only means I have one at Torrey Pines with both the golfers I would like making putts on the 18th all right as a memory in the house forever. Many people can say so.

My heart is with the PGA Tour. Select-and-Say is not my business or my character just to judge anybody who thinks otherwise, and for a lot of people like a light.

The next three or four years are worth.

Basically the retirement plan to very nice compensation to retirement if that's what you want. So two things. First thing in the Godfather.

One of the best scenes when the Godfather is being offered by Celexa in the Godfather million dollars for part of his business and Don Corleone. He tells him that the million dollars is peanuts and beliefs… As if million dollars is peanuts. Stephen to saloon.

I say that the genre what I think what he's saying is he's got enough money to live the way that he lives and he doesn't need another $400 million top like there's no part of his lifestyle that needs to be upgraded and so I think that's what he saying I can't say that $400 million.
